I am the stake clerk and am entering new recommends into LCR and get the message "the members stake/mission does not match the stake/ mission to which the recommend was sent"

Taken at face value, it sounds like the member's record isn't in your stake.

Was there a recent stake reorganization? Was the member's record just sent out?

Time to start asking questions.

Another possibility is that HQ thinks the recommend book went to a different stake or the member just moved in and brought a recommend from the ward before the move.

If that was the case, the error message needs work. To me, the message is saying "this member isn't a member of your stake". It doesn't appear to be saying the recommend didn't belong to the unit.

I'm thinking the member got a recommend just before moving out. By the time the stake clerk sat down to record it, the membership record had already left.
